 Sea Urcin and Crab Good morning all, when I got home yesterday from work I pumped up the tires on my bike threw some oil on the chain and took off for a long overdo ride. I think it’s been about two weeks since I last went riding, that’s how long I had that stupid cough! The ride was great and the trails were just perfect after that rain we had. I did a loop by the salt ponds last night and noticed most of them were filled with water again, a week ago they were all dried up and salt crystals starting to form. We haven’t had any more rain since that one day but that was a ton of rain that fell and probably enough to get us by for a few more months.
Here’s another shot from Bonaire, this is a Nimble Spray Crab hiding under a Rock Boring Sea Urchin. These crabs which many call an “Urchin Crab” are very common but trying to get a shot of one can often be very difficult or dangerous as they live exclusively under the spines of these urchins. I can’t even tell you how many times I have tried to shoot these things in the past but usually it ends in frustration. They are very scared little creatures and usually crawl further under the spines if approached, they seem to have incredible vision!
That’s it for this morning, need coffee! Off to work, talk to you tonight, Barry
